That was what seemed me strange, if only root allowed to safely remove USB stick(which works perfect, i checked) then why it is safely remove option in my right-click menu, if
1. I am not logged as root
2. The USB stick needn't to be safely removed, and can be just get off(as it is konsole 2.6 :)).

Anyway, I will get it off, as you already told, you didn't experience any problems with it ;)

Thank you very much

Sergey
